A colossal glass-and-steel monument, Globe Roundabout looms over its surrounding traffic circle. Designed by Spanish architect Julio Lafente, the work makes up one of many monument squares and roundabouts scattered across the city, many of which feature work by the same artist. The giant globe lights up at night, glowing turquoise against the evening sky. Use our Jeddah trip planning website to add Globe Roundabout and other attractions to your Jeddah vacation plans.

The busiest circle.. I am seeing this for the past 18 years. Very exciting roundabout. Where there was no traffic signals🚦 in the past but now 4 signals🚦 for each access.. lovable place and the point to start the Cornish exploration.. Roshan mall is the place at north west corner of globe.. great shopping 🛒 🛍️ .. one place for many shops including hyper panda..play zone, variety of food zone. And many more to spend pleasant time with family. Clean and neat.. well maintained..
